Blanc (Playlist)

"Don't get sentimental //
It always ends up drivel"

I feel like this song perfectly fits his Vibe. The melancholy melody and lyrics are very Him. He is pessimistic and tends to look at things in a negative light, feeling like the world itself is such a let down. Yet at the same time, the song has hints of optimism. "One day I am gonna grow wings."

"an empty stomach //
I've done nothing right //
I can't see what's there //
If I listen I can hear it"

For me, the vibe of the song is just as important as the lyrics. The slow, quiet beginning of the song is reminiscent of the way Blanc is so emotionally stunted (sorry babygirl, its true) and lost in his negativity, as it quietly brews up inside of him. The climax of the song is anxious, loud, finally ltting loose all of the anxiety and trauma that he has been bottling up. Honestly this song gives me chills.

"And I thought I was mistaken //
And I thought I heard you speak //
Tell me how do I feel? //
Tell me now, how should I feel?"

This was honestly one f the first songs I associated with Blanc and was even originally his 'theme song'. Blanc grew up being told what to do, and say, and think. I think he knew deep in his mind that these people, these scientists were bad people, and they were definitely in the wrong. But this is him realizing that he is being manipulated and finally trying to rebel against it, at least in his thoughts.

"Run boy run! This world is not made for you //
Run boy run! They're trying to catch you"

Okay even the title alone is fitting. After Blanc killed his adoptive father, he knew that the company that he worked and researched for would come after him. The constant, fast drumming calls to mind the anxiety of having to run away without looking back, for fear that the people loking for you will finally catch you. Also the song apparently has gay undertones and Blanc is also gay.

"I'm confused by the shapes in the dark. //
The thoughts in my head. //
I know I'm alive, I thought I was dead."

Darker in the day than the dead of night //
Cold, cold, cold, cold inside"

Undeserving of your sympathy //
'Cause there ain't no way that I'm sorry for what I did"

A song to keep us warm //
There's such a chill, such a chill "

"The boy with the thorn in his side //
Behind the hatred there lies //
A murderous desire for love"

"I'll take a quiet life //
A handshake of carbon monoxide //
And no alarms and no surprises //
No alarms and no surprises"
